Hey guys.
I have my theory for Star Wars Episodes 789 and its a sold theory.
The
story of Luke Skywalker is told from the time he is 18 years old to 22
years old. This is paralleled with the story of Anakin Skywalker. Yes
Anakin was 9 at the time of Episode 1 but by Episode II he was 19 and
Episode III he was 22. One could suggest that continuing the same
pattern and telling the story of Ben Skywalker in and around when he is
the same age would be appropriate. Thus as he was born 26.5 years after
EPIV he would be 18 by 44.5 after EPIV. This would be just after Fate of
the Jedi Apocalypse as it takes place in 44 years after EPIV. Its is
yet unclear when Star Wars Crucible and Sword of the Jedi takes place.
As I see it placing 7,8,9 here keeps everything made in continuity and
opens up a new area to explore.
Second argument. Return of the
Jedi came out in 1983 and episode 7 will, probably, come out in 2015 -
32 years later. Thus all the actors are 32 years older. If you place the
movie 40 years after Return of the Jedi the characters would be aged by
40 years. You will have actors that are 32 years older playing
characters that are 40 years older. If the films continue the pattern
that the other three films did with a new movie every three years and
the story of Ben Skywalker ageing from 18 to 22, Episode 9 will be out
in 2021. At this time the actors will be 38 years older playing
characters that are 44 years older. No matter the age of the actors, it
would seem appropriate to have the story in and around this time.
I would love to hear what you think of that.
Cheers
Michael.
